As a Shakespeare enthusiast, I think the best thing we could do for the long-term reputation of the plays is to just stop talking about them for a decade and only perform them in dive bars and basements.

“Assigned required reverence” is such a great description of a phenomenon that causes so many to disregard great things because they’re (fairly) sick of hearing they’re great.

The Great Gatsby is a great novel! Hamlet is an incredible play! The Beatles kick ass! Some things are just good, sorry!
